1. 35 mm equ is 80 - 300. So you can't find this range similar price in other brands.

2. Lens hood is smart designed. You never need to remove it.

3. Very sharp.

4. Min focus is 70 cm. So You don't need close up filter or other equipment.

5. Result is fatastic with focus stacking photos. Just try.

And I read some comments about weight that says "a little heavy".

Gentlemen, OMD E M10 MK3 body and this lens lighther then Nikon 70-200 VR F/2,8

I thanks to myself for choosing these configuration.

Loved my copy of the lens (have sold it) and appreciate your review. However, I do take exception to your comment about the lens hood, which IMHO is a disaster waiting to happen. Google to learn about the many instances where the lens hood has disassembled, releasing springs and/or small pieces of metal..a $70 piece of junk.. crap.

Can second that about the lens hood, apart from that the lens is perfect.

I think Olympus has redesigned the lens hood.  I had mine replaced under warranty after I experienced the rolling, tiny ball bearings failure.  The new one has worked perfectly.  It is the sharpest lens that I own from Olympus.
